I read this on another list and thought you guys might like to respond, too.
Please forward to other homeschoolers if you wish.

Apparently, the following was a 1/4 page comic that appeared in the
Stillwater Gazette (Stillwater, MN) last Thursday; there were no
accompanying
articles, just this comic:

1st frame: (Mom sitting in chair reading a book to child on the floor)
"My mother says schools are too dangerous, so I go to school at home".

2nd frame: (Child standing outside, looking bored) "At recess I go out
and stand in the back yard."

3rd frame: (Child going inside) "Then I go back inside"

4th frame: (Mom sitting reading again) "And we do more lessons"

5th frame: (Child looking out window) "Other recess times I just stare
out the window"

6th frame: ( From the outside we see child staring out the window)
"It's very safe here, away from the world. My mother says I can have my
childhood later."

End of comic-

The email address for the newspaper's editor is:(stwgztte@...)

Please take a moment to let the editor know how you feel. I think a calm
and
reasoned response reflects better on homeschoolers as a group.
